The Greco-Persian Wars or Persian Wars or Medic Wars were a series of conflicts between several Greek city-states and the Persian Empire that started about 500 B.C.E. and lasted until 448 B.C.E. The expression "Persian Wars" usually refers to either or both of the two Persian invasions of the Greek mainland in 490 B.C.E. and in 480-479 B.C.E.; in both cases, the allied Greeks successfully defeated the invasions. Notably not all Greeks fought against the Persians; some were neutral, and others were allied with Persia.
